“The Swiss government is taking a huge risk. The merger of two such large financial institutions creates a huge bank, which in the event of a conditional collapse will cause an unstable situation throughout the country – Fratcher.
In his view, such a decision could only show how desperate the government is at the moment and how great are the risks of Credit Suisse’s bankruptcy.
